Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System

The Omnipod® 5 System will be Australia’s first TGA approved tubeless, automated and waterproof^* insulin delivery system, for people with type 1 diabetes aged 2 years and older. Automated insulin delivery is available when used with a compatible Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM). Compatible sensor information will be provided closer to launch. The exclusive SmartAdjust™ technology automatically adjusts your basal insulin every five minutes based on your CGM readings, helping to protect you against highs and lows by improving time in range, day and night^1,2.

Omnipod 5 will be available for your patients in early 2025. Learn more about our OmnipodPromise®, a pathway for your patients (who currently access Omnipod DASH via private health insurance) who wish to transition to Omnipod 5 once it becomes available.

Pod

Tubeless, wearable, and waterproof^*, the Pod, with built-in SmartAdjust™ technology, sits on your patient’s body and automatically adjusts insulin delivery for up to 3 days or 72 hours.

Sensor

Continuously sends glucose values to the Pod, so your patients can get real-time data without the finger pricks^† . The Pod and sensor need to be in ‘line of sight’ to stay in Automated Mode. Placing them on the same side of the body allows for best communication between the devices.

Sensors are sold separately and require a separate prescription.

SmartAdjust ™ Technology

Predicts

Glucose 60 minutes into the future

Adjusts

Insulin delivery using the selected glucose target

Delivers

Insulin doses every 5 minutes (as needed)

Always adjusting, so you don’t have to.

Omnipod® 5 with SmartAdjust™ technology automatically adjusts to your patients’ personal needs by increasing, decreasing, or pausing insulin delivery every five minutes – which may help prevent highs and lows.^1,2

Always adjusting, so you don’t have to.

*The Pod has an IP28 rating for up to 7.6 metres for up to 60 minutes. The Omnipod 5 Controller is not waterproof. Please consult sensor manufacturer user guide for sensor waterproof rating.

** When used in automatic mode with a compatible CGM, the Omnipod 5 System makes adjustments to insulin delivery every 5 minutes based on the user's current CGM value, glucose values predicted 60 minutes in the future, glucose trend, and past insulin delivery to bring glucose to a user defined target.

† Fingerpricks required for diabetes treatment decisions if symptoms or expectations do not match readings.

Important Safety Information: The Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System is indicated for use by individuals with Type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons 2 years and older. The Omnipod 5 System is intended for single patient, home use and requires a prescription and/or ongoing supervision of a qualified healthcare provider. The Omnipod 5 System is compatible with the following U-100 insulins: NovoLog®/ Novorapid®, Humalog®, Trurapi®/Insulin aspart Sanofi®, Kirsty®, and Admelog®/Insulin lispro Sanofi®.

Refer to the Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System User Guide and www.omnipod.com/safety for complete safety information including indications, contraindications, warnings, cautions, and instructions.

Warning: DO NOT start to use the Omnipod 5 System or change settings without adequate training and guidance from a healthcare provider. Initiating and adjusting settings incorrectly can result in over-delivery or under-delivery of insulin, which could lead to hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia.

Provide Freedom with Pod Therapy

The launch of the Omnipod DASH® Insulin Management System provides a new tubeless option to Australians living with diabetes.

Pod Therapy is a simple, effective alternative to both MDI and tubed pumps for your patients with both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. One small, tubeless, wearable, and waterproof* Pod can provide up to 72 hours of continuous insulin delivery.

*The Pod has an IP28 rating for up to 25 feet for 60 minutes. The PDM is not waterproof.

Two simple parts:

The PDM

The Bluetooth® wireless technology-enabled Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) controls all Pod functions and is programmed based on your patients’ unique needs. With an intuitive touchscreen, the PDM can be programmed with zero basal and fractional I:C ratios for insulin sensitive patients

Intuitive Design

Intuitive Omnipod DASH® Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) is easy to learn and fast to teach.

Pod Site Tracker

The Pod site tracker feature allows your patients to keep a log of their most recent Pod sites.

Bluetooth Wireless Technology

With the Omnipod DASH® PDM, your patients can conveniently and discretely communicate* with the Pod, adjusting insulin doses based on activity level.

*At start-up, the Pod and Personal Diabetes Manager must be adjacent and touching. During normal operation, the Personal Diabetes Manager must be within 1.5 metres of the Pod.

Data Management

Quick access to your patient’s data when uploaded into Glooko® Data Management System.

The Pod

The Pod is small, lightweight and is waterproof* and can be worn discreetly under clothing meaning more freedom for your patient. Worn almost anywhere that insulin would usually be injected, the small, flexible cannula inserts automatically at the touch of a button, beginning personalised insulin delivery.

No visible needles

No need for patients to touch or see the insertion needle with the auto-cannula insertion feature.

Replacing multiple daily insulin injections

The Omnipod DASH® Insulin Management System may simplify the burden of multiple daily insulin injections (MDI).

Tubeless Delivery

The Omnipod DASH® System provides up to 3-day non-stop** insulin delivery - no need to disconnect or disrupt insulin delivery.

**Ref : Zisser HC. Quantifying the impact of a short interval interruption of insulin-pump infusion sets on glycemic excursions. Diabetes Care. 2008;31:238-239. This study was completed on a prior generation of the Omnipod® Insulin Management System.

Waterproof* Device

No need to disconnect for water activities, the Pod can be worn in the shower, in the ocean, or running in the rain. Just keep the PDM dry.

*The Pod has an IP28 rating for up to 7.6 feet for 60 minutes. The PDM is not waterproof.

Three Simple Steps

The simple design of the Omnipod DASH® System means it requires just three steps* to start insulin delivery.

*Refer to the Omnipod Insulin DASH® Insulin Management System User Guide for complete safety information including indications, contraindications, warnings, cautions, and instructions.

Step 1. Fill The Pod.

Fill the Pod with insulin (from 85 to 200 units of rapid-acting U-100 insulin, e.g. NovoRapid, Humalog, Fiasp or Apidra). The Pod primes itself and performs a series of safety checks.

Step 2. Apply The Pod.

Apply Pod to the prepared infusion site and run finger around the adhesive to ensure application.

Step 3. Press Start On PDM.

Press ‘Start’ to activate the automated insertion of the soft cannula and begin insulin delivery.
